Contact your doctor immediately if you experience any of the following:
- Severe or persistent diarrhea, which could be a sign of Clostridium difficile infection. New or worsening abdominal pain. Signs of allergic reaction, such as hives, swelling, or difficulty breathing. Pain or inflammation in your tendons (tendinitis), especially in your heels, ankles, or wrists. Numbness or tingling in your extremities. Mental health changes, including confusion, hallucinations, or anxiety. Persistent nausea or vomiting. Your UTI symptoms don’t improve after three days of taking Cipro.
These symptoms might require immediate medical attention or a change in your treatment plan. Don’t hesitate to seek help if you’re concerned. Regular monitoring of your symptoms is crucial. Your doctor can help you determine if your treatment is working and adjust the plan as needed. Following their advice is key to successful recovery.
In addition, schedule a follow-up appointment with your doctor as advised, typically after completing the Cipro course, to ensure the infection is completely cleared and to discuss any lingering issues.
